YER62 at Depot Jct
Tied down in the middle of its short run, presumably due to congestion at Englewood Yard ahead, the Eureka to Englewood transfer holds tight at Depot Jct on UP's Houston Sub.
Due to the history of how lines were consolidated over time, this train isn't blocking a main track despite Main 2/the Passenger Main being to the left. The track the train is occupying is actually a long crossover between Main 2 at Depot Jct and Main 1 at Chaney Jct, and plenty long to hold a short train like this one.
